    I brushed the lettuce with oil and sprinkled with kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, grilled it and then grated parmesan over it after removing from the heat. Have tried w/o the vinegar and loved it that way too.

    my family loved this recipe. i brushed the lettuce with garlic olive oil and tried to get as much of the cheese on that i could. i didn't completely freeze the wine vinegar. i made it to the consistency a little more frozen then a slushy. next time i may try to freeze balsamic vinegar instead of the wine vinegar. great job alton.

    I have made this numerous times after seeing it on the show and have never had a problem getting the cheese to stick to the lettuce or getting too clumpy or chewy, but I don't use an great deal of cheese... maybe that's the problem some of the reviewers are having? I do agree with the user who suggests using a square or rectangular container to freeze the vinegar in, that definitely helps. I make this all the time and love it, light and zesty, it makes a great on-the-go snack (just make sure you have a few paper towels under it so the melting vinegar doesnt drip all over you

    Besides making the house smell fantastic, we love this recipe! Its easy and yummy!
    *TIPS:
    Please remember to use a very good non-stick skillet or it will be a mess and don't get too much oil on the lettuce!
    This has become a regular on our table! Thanks Alton!

    The key is to make sure the romaine is totally dry. And for heavan sake don't use grated parm. That is all I had at the time and it turned out awful. I tried it again with asiago and it was much better. I liked it enough to try it one more time but if that isn't outstanding I will probably never do it again.

    this is really easy and I was surprised that the lettuce didnt wilt. The cheese is really important so make sure you have enough. pack extra on, you will be glad you did. I didnt have the vinegar ready so I just ate it without. will try with vinegar next time.

    I did this in my electric skillet and it came out very well -- and it was delicious and nutritious -- and quick! Something I could enjoy almost every day. A few things were important: I had to make sure the lettuce was completely dry. Even then, after I pushed the lettuce into the cheese, I turned the halves over and pushed more cheese into the lettuce. A very quick flip into the hot skillet, and then I used a long spatula to turn the cooked lettuce over, so the cheese would stay where it belonged. And I learned not to freeze the vinegar in a round bowl because scraping just spun the frozen disk in circles. A square or rectangular dish is imperative. But after that, YUM.

    After many attempts the cheese does not stick to the Romaine upon searing. If anyone attempts this dont get your hopes up.
